His Heart is a Haven

In this life my heart performs somersaults with it’s emotions and needs. Then it needs rescuing. I have choices. I could run to friends or family. I could even go to the internet with masterful Google or strangers with their options and opinions galore.

But I run to my faithful God.Where else can I find love with unfathomable depths, incredulous from every angle? A love in which the sum of His thoughts for me are greater than the sum of my breaths.

Where else can I find a pure heart, untainted by opinion? A heart not marred by evil. He is not swayed by prejudges of men nor social status.

There is no safer place of refuge that I can run to find relief. Hespilled His blood, and I spill my guts.

When I come to Him, I experience a washing from my evil thoughts and deeds. I find healing when my heart has been tattered and torn. And He moves me to an even greater rejoicing when my soul is happy.

When I continually come, my heart moves from fickle to fixed.

His heart is my haven. May it be yours, too.

Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your heart before him; God is a refuge for us. Selah Psalm 62:8 ESV

Kelly has insight and love of the Scriptures that grew from her upbringing as a child of Godly parents and grandparents. She is not afraid nor too proud, to be honest in her life experiences and uses no masks… she is who she is … a true woman of God. I am often amazed at her deep knowledge of God’s Word for her young age, but she strives to serve God in the ways He wants her to serve Him …and us. She is an encourager but does not hold back on correction or reproof from the Lord. Her blogs are certainly WELL worth the few minutes to read them… as they will give you hours of meditation on God’s Word and thoughts of how to serve Him to our utmost.
